5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly useful book., October 2, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Neuroimaging: Clinical and Physical Principles (Hardcover)
One of the best and most up-to-date treatises, covering all aspects of neuroradiology. The first few chapters cover the clinically relevant aspects of MRI physics which I have found extremely helpful. New and advanced MRI techniques are well covered from both a basic and clinical standpoint, a vital element not quite seen in other books. This book effectively fills the empty void between older and introductory textbooks such as Osborn's or Requisites and the multivolume subspecialty textbooks on various aspects of neuroradiology. The authors are an international group of experts in their field, mostly from the US. There is coverage of clinically relevant MRI physics, adult and pediatric brain imaging, orbits, sinuses, skull base, and the spine. There are also chapters on myelography, interventional neuroradiology, and spine interventions. The liberal use of tables in some chapters is very helpful and the figures are very well selected and produced.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good textbook of neuroradiology, April 12, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Neuroimaging: Clinical and Physical Principles (Hardcover)
According to the publisher's advertisement, this single-volume textbook of neuroradiology "is destined to be the new benchmark among text/reference books for neuroradiology etc". This flagrant overstatement should not discredit the book. Despite the usual problems with multi-authored books of this size (the style is not uniform, particular chapters do generally better than others, and progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy is not the same as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease), this book is generally well-organized, its coverage is comprehensive enough and by this time it is probably the most up-to-date textbook of neuroradiology in the market.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good general text, May 29, 2000
This review is from: Neuroimaging: Clinical and Physical Principles (Hardcover)
This is a good general text for anyone wanting to review both MRI physics and predominantly MRI neuroradiology. There are areas that use some CT etc., but the emphasis is definitely on MRI.
